บท 39: Storm's Mother

**************

CHAPTER 39

~Snow's POV~

In the car, the streets blurred past me as I sped toward the hospital. My thoughts were a mess, switching from Zara to Ivan to this new bombshell. 

What had happened to Storm's mother? What complications were they talking about?

Glacier was agitated. I couldn't let this derail everything. Not when Storm was finally getting to be normal without crying daily for his mother. And now, with Ivan's circling like a damn vulture, my attention is more than torn. 

My grip on the steering wheel tightened as I pulled into the hospital parking lot. One problem at a time. First, I'd deal with this. Then I'd deal with Ivan.

But Zara... I couldn't shake her from my mind. Her silence in the car earlier. Her look when she walked away without a word. 

What was she thinking? And why did I feel like she was slipping from me, just when I needed her the most?
